We build and implement world-class cybersecurity programs to protect your data and your customers’ data.
We need to get comprehensive cloud cybersecurity management, but…
Protect your business with a strong cyber risk management program. We quantify the cyber risks and prioritize the biggest threats to your company.
Prove your dedication to security by tapping a CISO to transform your cloud security posture. Our vCISOs earn trust by representing your program to whoever needs to hear about it.
Leverage the expertise of cybersecurity professionals who build dozens of cybersecurity programs each year. Our two-person cybersecurity teams provide all the extra manpower you need to build, implement, and manage your cybersecurity program.
Cloud security consulting is a service that companies use to access the talent and expertise of cloud security experts, without hiring full-time. Cloud security consultants can help organizations reach a variety of cybersecurity and compliance goals.
Many Managed Service Providers (MSPs) provide cybersecurity services… that start and stop with tools and basic advice about them. While these tools can be helpful for securing your cloud environment, MSPs do not provide strategic guidance for a holistic security program that will scale with your organization’s growth.
While not every business requires security compliance, like SOC 2 or ISO 27001, many cloud and software vendors do. Cloud security consultants help bring your cybersecurity program up to the necessary standard, and guide you through the audit.

Successful cyber attacks can do millions of dollars of damages to companies in remediation time, reputational damage, opportunity cost, and lost business. A strong security program helps protect your cloud environment from threat actors who would seek to compromise it.
Many companies expect their vendors, especially cloud service vendors, to have robust cybersecurity protections. Strong cloud security posture will impress security-conscious buyers, making you more likely to close more deals with them.
Many companies decide to build out a security capability in-house, rather than outsourcing it to a consulting firm.
When building in-house, cybersecurity tends to be a major burden on existing technical staff who already have full plates – such as the CTO. Hiring new full-time cybersecurity leadership is an option, but CISOs are expensive, hard to hire, and often have short tenures.
A common approach is to hire a security firm like Fractional CISO to build out, mature, and manage the program for a couple of years before transitioning it off to an internal team. Sometimes, we even help hire new CISOs to take over!
With Fractional CISO, you aren’t just hiring a consultant. You’re leveraging a highly accessible U.S.-based cybersecurity team consisting of an experienced Virtual CISO and a skilled cybersecurity analyst to build and run your cybersecurity program.
No two businesses are built the same. Would cookie cutter guidance be enough for you? We quantify the cyber risks facing businesses to ensure your cybersecurity program actually addresses your business risk, and doesn’t just check a box.
Many Virtual CISO providers and security consultants receive commissions or finders’ fees when they recommend certain tools to their customers. We only recommend tools if they’re right for your business and take no kickbacks, ever.
Don’t just take our word for it, read our case study about how we helped WayPath Consulting become SOC 2 compliant:
CTO of WayPath Consulting
Fractional CISO has enabled us to showcase best-in-class security, putting us on-par with firms much larger in employee count. They allow me to re-invest time previously spent on day-to-day management into growing and improving our business.”
Cloud security consultants help businesses manage their cloud-related cybersecurity programs by providing leadership advice, implementing programs, guiding compliance efforts, and many other ways!
Cloud security consulting engagements last as long as the company needs, or is happy with, their consultant for! Fractional CISO’s normal engagements are contracted for three years, but our clients can cancel early or extend depending on their needs.
If you’re looking for a senior-level cloud security consultant, they should have the Certified Information System Security Professional (CISSP) certification, from ISC2. It is considered to be the gold standard of cybersecurity certification, and is only available to security leaders who have completed at least five years of work in the industry.
Only 1/3 of cyber insurance policies actually pay out in incidents. Most companies have cyber insurance policies that insure too little, or too much, and have absurdly low caps and silly exclusions.
